More Info


Bad Bonita is a solo fire performance act that combines high-technical difficulty with a strong aesthetic and ritual energy. The show delivers a dynamic visual experience through a versatile range of fire props, designed to captivate audiences of all kinds — from intimate private events to large-scale public festivals.
The performance is built around four core disciplines:

• Fire Fans — Geometry, fluidity, and dance in perfect synchronicity.
• Fire Hula Hoop — Dynamic and hypnotic spins that create full orbits of light around the body.
• Fire Poi / Chains (Swing) — Speed, acceleration, and large-format geometric shapes.
• Fire Torches / Wands — Millimetric precision and close-up fire effects, including body manipulation and fire-eating techniques.


These are the categories of entertainment or other services offered by BadBonita FIRE SHOW.

LOGISTICS & TECHNICAL

• Setup & preparation time: Minimum 30 minutes before the scheduled performance start.
• Fuel handling area: A safe, ventilated area away from the public for soaking and managing fire props.


The show is performed as a single continuous act of 15–20 minutes, progressing through four fire disciplines in sequence. The set list is fully flexible and can be modified to suit the specific requirements, format, or theme of each event.

1. FIRE FANS (Opening)
Fluid, geometric choreography to open the show. Establishes the mood and rhythm — graceful, hypnotic, and visually expansive.

2. FIRE HULA HOOP (Build)
Full-body orbits of spinning fire. Dynamic and high-energy, creating large circles of light that draw the audience in.

3. FIRE POI / CHAINS — SWING (Climax)
High-speed, large-format geometric patterns. The most physically intense segment — fast, aggressive, and visually explosive.

4. FIRE TORCHES / WANDS + FIRE EATING (Finale)
Close-up precision work with direct audience engagement. Includes body manipulation and fire-eating techniques as the closing highlight.

Music: Fully adaptable to event theme. Default style is instrumental Rock or Ritual music, curated to enhance the flow of each discipline change. Custom music requests are welcome with a minimum of 2 weeks notice.

Note: The structure, duration, number of disciplines, and format (stage act or roving) can all be tailored to meet the client's needs. Please don't hesitate to discuss specific requirements.
